    Go ahead. Based on H2H or greatness whatever floats your boat.

    Is 90s Foreman a SHW because he is fatter?

    6'4 240lbs and Foreman is definitely 6'4, I know it says he's 6'3, but he ain't

    S-HW's have to be Giants - 6' 5" and taller.

    that is the mitigating factor... there are guys 6' 3" and 250lbs, but the Weight has no baring on a 3, 5 and 7 inch Height Disparity and an Equally Longer Reach to go with it.

    the Giants - S-HW, is HEIGHT, that is why they are a different animal / Division.

    Wlad would be number 1 in terms of accomplishments. In terms of H2h it’s Wlad or Lennox. Then the rest. But Fury if he fought more often could make a case but I just don’t see it happening.
